2차원적 몬테 칼로 시뮬레이션을 사용하여, 화학적 기상 반응법에 의한 탄화규소 전환층의 생성에 미치는 온도의 영향을 조사하였다. 화학적 기상 반응법은 실리카의 열탄화 환원법에 근거하며, 흑연 기판의 탄소와 실리카 반응기체와의 화학적 반응에 의하여 탄화규소 전환층을 형성하는 방법이다. 탄화규소는 반응기체의 확산 및 반응과 같은 열적활성화 과정을 통하여 생성되기 때문에 탄화규소 전환층의 형성은 온도에 크게 의존함을 알 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 몬테 칼로법을 사용하여 삼각격자로 배열된 2차원적인 계에서 흑연 기판의 미세 기공을 따라 확산된 반응기체와 탄소와의 반응에 의해서 탄화규소가 형성되는 과정을 시뮬레이션을 행하였다. 반응 온도를 1900K, 2000K, 2100K, 2200K로 조건을 달리하여 시뮬레이션 하였으며, 그 계산 결과를 실험 결과와 비교하여 재현성을 검토하고 탄화규소 전환층의 두께와 화학적 조성 구배에 대한 반응 온도의 영향을 검증하기 위한 것이다.

The temperature-programmed reduction of titanium oxide ($TiO_2$) with pure $CH_4$ was used for the preparation of titanium carbide crystallites. The synthesized materials had the different surface areas, indicating that the structural properties of these materials were strong functions of two different heating rates and space velocity employed. The titanium carbide crystallites were active for $NH_3$ decomposition. Since the reactivity varied with changes in the particle size, ammonia decomposition reactivity over the titanium carbides crystallites appeared to be related to the different active species. The reactivities of titanium carbide crystallites were two and three times lower than those of the vanadium and molybdenum carbide crystallites, respectively. These results suggested that the difference in activities might be related to the degree of electron transfer between metals and carbon.

The effect of carbides on the tensile properties in 0.5C-17Cr-0.5Ni martensitic stainless steel was studied. With the increase of austenitizing temperature, the volume fraction of residual carbide was decreased rapidly. In tempered specimens after quenching, the volume fraction of total carbide was decreased with the increase of austenitizing temperature. In tempered specimens after quenching, strength was decrease and elongation was increased with the increase of austenitizing temperature. Tensile strength was increase and elongation was decreased with the increase of volume fraction of residual and total carbides. With the increase of austenitizing temperature, the tensile properties of mod. 0.5C-17Cr-0.5Ni martensitic stainless was affected greatly by residual carbide than tempered carbide.

Porous carbon fiber composites (CFCs) having variable specific surface area ranging 35~1150 $\m^2$/g were reacted to produce silicon carbide fiber composites with SiO vapor generated from a mixture of Si and $SiO_2$ at 1673 K for 2 h under vacuum. Part of SiO vapor generated during conversion process condensed on to the converted fiber surface as amorphous silica. Chemical analysis of the converted CFCs resulting from reaction showed that the products contained 27~90% silicon carbide, 7~18% amorphous silica and 3~63% unreacted carbon, and the composition depended on the specific carbide, 7~18% amorphous silica and 3~63% unreacted carbon, and the composition depended on the specific surface area of CFCs. CFC of higher specific surface area yielded higher degree of conversion of carbon to silicon and conversion products of lower mechanical strength due to occurrence of cracks in the converted caron fiber. As the conversion of carbon to silicon carbide proceeded, pore size of converted CFCs increased as a result of growth of silicon carbide crystallites, which is also linked to the crack formation in the converted fiber.

Stress corrosion cracking of Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 has been studied with a C-ring specimen in 1%, 10% and 40% NaOH at $315^{\circ}C$. SCC test was performed at 200 mV above corrosion potential. Initial stress on the apex of C-ring specimen was varied from 300 MPa to 565 MPa. Materials were heat treated at various temperatures. SCC resistance of Ni-$_\chi$Cr-10Fe alloy increased as the Cr content of the alloy increased if the density of an intergranular carbide were comparable. SCC resistance of Alloy 600 increased in caustic solution as the product of coverage of an intergranular carbide in grain boundary, intergranular carbide thickness and Cr concentration at grain boundary increased. Low temperature mill annealed Alloy 600 with small grain size and without intergranular carbide was most susceptible to SCC. TT Alloy 690 was most resistant to SCC due to the high value of the product of coverage of an intergranular carbide in grain boundary, intergranular carbide thickness and Cr concentration at grain boundary. Dependency of SCC rate on stress and NaOH concentration was obtained.

Friction and wear properties of the Boron carbide ($B_{4}C$) coating 100 nm thickness were studied under various relative humidity (RH). The boron carbide film was deposited on silicon substrate by DC magnetron sputtering method using $B_{4}C$ target with a mixture of Ar and methane ($CH_4$) as precursor gas. Friction tests were performed using a reciprocation type friction tester at ambient environment. Steel balls of 3 mm in diameter were used as counter-specimen. The results indicated that relative humidity strongly affected the tribological properties of boron carbide coating. Friction coefficient decreased from 0.42 to 0.09 as the relative humidity increased from $5\%$ to $85\%$. Confocal microscopy was used to observe worn surfaces of the coating and wear scars on steel balls after the tests. It showed that both the coating surface and the ball were significantly worn-out even though boron carbide is much harder than the steel. Moreover, at low humidity ($5\%$) the boron carbide showed poor wear resistance which resulted in the complete removal of coating layer, whereas at the medium and high humidity conditions, it was not. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) analyses were performed to characterize the chemical composition of the worn surfaces. We suggest that tribochemical reactions occurred during sliding in moisture air to form boric acid on the worn surface of the coating. The boric acid and the tribochemcal layer that formed on steel ball resulted in low friction and wear of boron carbide coating.

Fe-Si-Cr ferroalloy is predominantly produced by carbothermic reduction. In this study, silicothermic and carbothermic mixed reduction of chromite ore to produce Fe-Si-Cr alloy is suggested. As reductants, silicon and silicon carbide are evaluated by thermochemical calculations, which prove that silicon carbide can be applied as a raw material. Considering the critical temperature of the change from the carbide to the metallic form of chromium, thereduction experiments were carried out. In these high temperature reactions, silicon and silicon carbide act as effective reductants to produce Fe-Si-Cr ferroalloy. However, at temperatures lower than the critical temperature, silicon carbide shows a slow reaction rate for reducing chromite ore. For the proper implementation of a commercial process that uses silicon carbide reductants, the operation temperature should be kept above the critical temperature. Using equilibrium calculations for chromite ore reduction with silicon and silicon carbide, the compositions of reacted metal and slag were successfully predicted. Therefore, the mass balance of the silicothermic and carbothermic mixed reduction of chromite ore can be proposed based on the calculations and the experimental results.

To satisfy the demand of higher cutting performance, mechanical properties with tungsten carbide (WC-Co) tool materials were investigated. Hardness and transverse rupture strength with WC grain size, Co content and density were measured. Compared to H, K, and S manufacture maker as tungsten carbide (WC-Co) tool materials were used for high-speed machining of end-milling operation. The three tungsten carbide (WC-Co) tool materials were evaluated by cutting of STD 11 cold-worked die steel (HRC25) under high-speed cutting condition. Also, tool life was obtained from measuring flank wear by CCD wear measuring system. Tool dynamometer was used to measure cutting force. The cutting force and tool wear are discussed along with tool material characteristics. Consequently, the end-mill of K, H manufacture maker showed higher wear-resistance due to its higher hardness, while the S maker endmill tool showed better performance for high metal removal.
